This is outrageous. Not only was the "unanimous" decision bullshit, but also there has been no effort to control weight missing.
Since the commission and the UFC do absolutely nothing about this, all fighters see that making weight in important fights doesn't really matter.
If you're trying to prove that you can be champ IN THAT WEIGHT CLASS, you have to weigh in IN THAT WEIGHT CLASS.
I think a new rule should be made that if you are a top 5 fighter or fighting a top 5 fighter in that division, you should always make that weight.
